Stress is a root factor for sure, but many of those people also dealt with very high stress levels.
I suppose that you could argue that when we are always connected to mainstream and social media, there is the perpetual stress that comes from that.
But I don't know, I think microplastics and things like glyphosate tear down and weaken our bodies.
There are legitimately instances where very active people who eat a reasonable diet and can't drop their weight or otherwise reduce their fat. This is a phenomenon that is not actually normal, but is becoming a common occurrence.
If you walk 10000 steps a day at a brisk pace and eat only a normal diet of 1600-~2500 calories a day (you should always have caloric swings when losing weight which keeps your body from thinking it's starving) then you should be physically incapable of reaching 300 pounds. This used to be the case.
As was said above, more strenuous exercise was considered for the athletic.

Things have definitely changed beyond stress too.
